'It's not time yet!'

Staring at the zombies, Carl muttered to himself.

When the steel bar was less than three inches away from his throat, Carl instantly changed his posture to block and sent instructions to V.

The collision of weapons produced a shocking noise, which just covered up the roar of the chainsaw.

In the sky, V jumped down from the roof of the villa next to him.

The running electric saw cut a "gap" in the air and fell towards the zombies rapidly.

As if sensing the malice behind him, the zombie turned his head and looked behind him.

But the next second, its entire body was hit by the chainsaw.

V "chopped" it open with unstoppable force, and thick green slime splashed everywhere.

"Dead?"

The flames burned the zombie's body a few more times, and the motionless body indicated that Carl had finally dealt with it.

"Phew~ Fortunately, it's not so troublesome that I can't solve it completely."

Taking out the tools from the dimensional bag, Carl was trying to extract some tissue and bring it back to Nia for research.

But at this moment, the sticky liquid on the ground suddenly trembled slightly.

With the help of the green rain, they quickly dissolved into the rain, and then a huge guy like a slime rose from the rain curtain.

"Why does this have a second stage? Nia never mentioned this to me!"

After reconnecting V to himself, Carl did not dare to delay for a moment and fled directly out of the villa area.

The huge "slime" expanded rapidly like a balloon, and many buildings in the villa area were swallowed up by the huge waves transformed from the sticky liquid.

When it grows to a certain size.

With a "pop" sound, countless green mucus bubbles began to be released from the slime.

Once they come into contact with a substance, they begin to corrode it and create gaps in it. This feature is a natural nemesis for Carl, who is wearing metal power armor.

At the critical moment, a voice came from a distance.

"Hey! Little guy over there, come here quickly!"

In the rain, a tall and thin figure appeared in front.

Seeing that Carl had dodged the first wave of green bubbles, he quickly grabbed Carl's arm and ran forward at full speed.

From time to time, he would cast some druid spells on himself and Carl for protection.

Carl didn't dare to ask any questions at this time, he just followed the other person.

It was not until the two finally left the green bubble and found a place to shelter from the rain that they began to talk.

"Hello, young man. I am a druid of the Winter's Son. I..."

Before the druid could finish his words, Carl subconsciously began to use the rain to wash his gauntlets.

That was exactly where the other party had just grabbed.

Seeing Carl's reaction, veins immediately popped up on the tall and thin druid's forehead, but soon subsided.

"Well, I'm from the Eruden Plains, you guys..."

Noticing the tall and thin druid's dissatisfaction, Carl used his own background as a shield.

Eludans naturally hold a social rank of "Friendly" in many druidic societies.

Even a super radical druid organization like the Sons of Winter is no exception.

They believe in natural selection, and will even take the initiative to destroy weak beings.

Rumor has it that the Children of Winter once killed an entire village with disease in order to select qualified candidates, and then let the remaining ones join them.

"Master Oelian is indeed a little prejudiced against us, but now is not the time to talk about this. The virus developed by the Lich Queen is too evil. We must unite to destroy it!"

Although their methods are radical and cruel, the Children of Winter is one of the few organizations on the entire continent that is most dedicated to exterminating the undead.

Perhaps it is precisely because of their attitude towards the undead that various countries allow them to continue to exist.

"Wait, I saw a high-level druid zombie before, could that be..."

"Yes, that was my companion. He was confident in his physical condition and thought that the disease was a test from God. As a result..."

When talking about his former companion, the tall and thin druid's face was full of regret.

The opponent's fighting ability was quite good, but now he has suddenly become the enemy's side.

Moreover, he turned into a zombie entirely because of his own carelessness, not because of any other force majeure.

To be honest, this guy's death was a bit too funny.

His face trembled slightly a few times, and Carl almost cursed out loud, but fortunately the tall and thin druid didn't notice it because of the helmet.

"How do you plan to solve this? The minimum level of a lich is 21. We, a bunch of small characters, can't possibly affect her plan. She is the overall situation!"

Just as an Earthling does not believe that humans can defeat the Trisolarans, Carl does not believe that he and his people can defeat a legendary lich.

He just hoped to get his family and friends safely out of this place of trouble.

It would be fine if the tall and thin druid just asked him for a small favor, but if he was asked to die, then Carl wouldn't mind fighting to the death with him.

"Well, I certainly can't stop it myself, but you should have noticed just now that all the zombies were called away by the sound of a horn. Now is a good opportunity for us to investigate the root cause of all this!"

With a sense of mission, the tall and thin druid spoke solemnly.

Then he was told by Carl what Sherrill had said.

"Is it actually like this?"

With an awkward smile, the tall and thin druid looked like a speculator who wanted to resell pagers in 2002.

After being controlled by the other party for a few seconds, Carl said helplessly:

"The most important thing we should do now is to quickly send the message out, rather than making any plans here! What plan can compare to a legendary warrior going down to fight?"

After that, Carl took out a small notebook from his dimensional bag.

Don't underestimate this thing. It contains the rune codes of more than 146 permanent teleportation arrays across the continent.

In order to avoid falling into the dungeon again, Carl spent some gold coins to find out about this.

Some of these teleportation arrays aren't even legal.

"Then where can we find the teleportation array? Is there one in the storm now?"

"I don't know, but we have to find it out so that we can have a chance of survival."

“Boom—”

A flash of lightning flashed across the sky, and the brief light temporarily illuminated the surroundings of the two people.

The twisted trees surrounded the two people with their fangs and claws bared, like a group of demons dancing wildly, looking like they wanted to eat people.

"Squeak"

Suddenly, there was a sound of something being squeezed, and a wooden vine came out from the corner.

At the same time, countless pairs of eyes opened in the surrounding woods.

In the empty eye sockets of the zombie tree monsters, the thick darkness seemed to devour everything.
